Bleak. Loved the reversed timeline, that's something I've been trying to work out for ages. And you nailed it. Well-oiled prose with a satisfying snap at the end. EJ at her best!
Too... dark is what you're saying? Is there even such a thing? I think that just means you knocked it out of the park. And just to be clear, JJ scares the shit out of me too. Along with fucking ark-type situations. A+, from darkstack to darkstack.
You gotta go where the story leads you, sometimes it’s a dark place🤷♀️ I feel like one of the marks of a good writer is being brave enough to follow, which you definitely are. That’s why your stuff is always so compelling and intense.
I'm in awe of how real these characters feel, in what—3,000 words? Unbelievable. Nice one, EJ! Did you recommend this because of the lion tattoo? Or something else? Just curious.
hahaha no I forgot about the tattoo! Leos are magnetic, persuasive, maybe a little dramatic, center of attention folks. I feel like Gunner in this story doesn’t even realize the impression he makes on others, which is humongous, and it gives such Leo vibes.
I'm not dramatic! I'd like to speak to your manager about this. I'm gonna let the WHOLE WORLD know what you said about Leos! NO ONE WILL EAT AT AGE OF AQUARIUS EVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
E.J., I'm halfway through "Weatherman," and it's got me. This woman, her terse comments and her tatoo are perfect. I'm going to do some writing and then flash back and continue reading. Thank you for another exciting and inticing. story.

thank you Ken! this one was too dark for a lot of people but I could have known you’d be able to handle it. 😉

Oh man. Such a compelling gut punch☠️❤️
thanks. I think it ended up sadder than I thought it was going to be.

I have nothing to add that differs from what has already been said. Very good, EJ.
Fantastic! And terrifying and sad. All the feels.
Terrifyingly real, sad, scary , hopeless, written so well
